The Bridge That Lies Between Us

Last night we walked along a path
Beneath the moonlit sky
And as we walked on fallen leaves
I knew our love had died

The love we shared has come and gone
The laughter fades away
Trying not to learn the truth
I finally heard you say

Jackie there's a woman
She's the bridge that lies between us
Don't ya know there's a woman
She's the bridge that lies between us

The words cut deep all through the night
And echoed through the day
All our friends said I was brave
But I sure didn't feel that way

Vision blurred by tears I see
A picture on the wall
Fooling no-one but myself
To say I don't care at all

If ya find she's not the kind
To give the love you need
I'll be waiting here for you
I'm too proud to plead

There's nothing you could ask of me
I wouldn't gladly do
I'll be here in time of need
If only to sleep with you.
